Point Attempt

Famous quotes containing the words point and/or attempt:

    Where is the point at which the merely individual
    Explosion breaks...?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Every man is in a state of conflict, owing to his attempt to reconcile himself and his relationship with life to his conception of harmony. This conflict makes his soul a battlefield, where the forces that wish this reconciliation fight those that do not and reject the alternative solutions they offer. Works of art are attempts to fight out this conflict in the imaginative world.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
